The shifter console has switches to control fan, water pump, fuel pump and separates the ignition and starter so you can spin the motor over, then hit ignition.
Owned it since 1976, originally a 6/glide car. Hasn't been on the street since 1989
The original tailgate/window are included, also the original rear seat, it would have to be modified to fit around the roll bar.
Some rust as seen in pictures, I have the repair panels for dog legs.Also needs rocker panels installed correctly, I did them 30+ years ago by just screwing them in.
Rear wheels have been "modified" over the years to fit bigger tires, could be cut out gasser style or replacement panels are available from several sources
I don't really know how much I have in the car, using ebay prices, I figure the engine/trans/rear,etc exceed $6000 so you'd be getting a 57 body/frame for less than $3000. Pull the drivetrain for your race car and put the wagon back on the street with a mild 350/350!
To be sold on Bill of Sale,can get title for $300
Just added more pics. Since it's been a race car for so long, I didn't realize what shape thefloors were in (it's not like I've driven it in the rain!)it's gonna need front/rear partial pans, inner rockers (braces are good) Depends on what you use it for, as an original racer it wouldn't matter as much as if you want a show/race car.
I was living in Wi in the early 80s and driving the carregularly with the six/glide. Had it parked in my lot and got caught in a tornado,which dropped a tree straight down the roof...see pics.
Any questions or you need add'l pics, just ask.
